The death penalty some say it is for revenge but not for me it's justice in the end For those who cry for the criminals rights or arguing why ? Two wrongs don't make a right Be on the other side where real tears are cried There pain resides and it is justified Live in their shoes feel their sad pain Then ask yourself do you still feel the same ?

The Death Penalty
The death penalty some say it is for revenge but not for me it's justice in the end For those who cry for the criminals rights or arguing why ? Two wrongs don't make a right Be on the other side where real tears are cried There pain resides and it is justified Live in their shoes feel their sad pain Then ask yourself do you still feel the same ?
I believe in the death penalty. I wrote this for all the families who have had to survive not only losing people they love but also losing their faith in the criminal justice system.
